Education

The number of books will grow continually, and one can predict that a time will come when it will be almost as difficult to learn anything from books as from the direct study of the whole universe. It will be almost as convenient to search for some bit of truth concealed in nature as it will be to find it hidden away in an immense multitude of bound volumes.
- Denis Diderot

Best Quotes about Education

1.
Fathers send their sons to college either because they went to college or because they didn't.
L. L. Henderson

2.
No pain that we suffer, no trial that we experience is wasted. It ministers to the development of such qualities as patience, faith, fortitude and humility. All that we suffer and all that we endure, especially when we endure it patiently, builds up our characters, purifies our hearts, expands our souls, and makes us more tender and charitable, more worthy to be called the children of God... and it is through sorrow and suffering, toil and tribulation, that we gain the education that we come here to acquire and which will make us more like our Father and Mother in heaven.
Whitney, Orson F.

3.
Formal education is but an incident in the lifetime of an individual. Most of us who have given the subject any study have come to realize that education is a continuous process ending only when ambition comes to a halt.
Rees, R. I.

4.
I didn't go to college at all, any college, and I'm not saying you wasted your time or money, but look at me, I'm a huge celebrity.
Ellen DeGeneres

5.
Invest in yourself, in your education. There's nothing better.
Porter, Sylvia

6.
An effeminate education weakens both the mind and the body.
Quinet, Edgar

7.
No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.
Rudolph, Lee

8.
It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.
Alec Bourne

9.
The best education in the world is that got by struggling to get a living.
Phillips, Wendell

10.
The most important part of education is proper training in the nursery.
Plato

11.
She knows what is the best purpose of education: not to be frightened by the best but to treat it as part of daily life.
John Mason Brown

12.
Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.
Rohn, Jim

13.
Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence.
Robert Frost

14.
Everyone has a right to a university degree in America, even if it's in Hamburger Technology.
Clive James

15.
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller

16.
What does education often do? It makes a straight-cut ditch of a free, meandering brook.
Thoreau, Henry David

17.
That's what college is for - getting as many bad decisions as possible out of the way before you're forced into the real world. I keep a checklist of'em on the wall in my room.
Jeph Jacques

18.
I just graduated and already I'm way behind.

19.
The foundation of every state is the education of its youth.
Diogenes Laertius

20.
The first condition of education is being able to put someone to wholesome and meaningful work.
Ruskin, John

21.
Most people are willing to pay more to be amused than to be educated.
Savage, Robert C.

22.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten.
B. F. Skinner

23.
Mistakes are a great educator when one is honest enough to admit them and willing to learn from them.

24.
The secret of all success is to know how to deny yourself. Prove that you can control yourself, and you are an educated man; and without this all other education is good for nothing.
R. D. Hitchcock

25.
Bachelor's degrees make pretty good placemats if you get'em laminated.
Jeph Jacques

26.
Every uneducated person is a caricature of himself.
Schlegel, Friedrich

27.
Education is a state-controlled manufactory of echoes.
Norman Douglas

28.
Modern education has devoted itself to the teaching of impudence, and then we complain that we can no longer control our mobs.
Ruskin, John

29.
Next in importance to freedom and justice is popular education, without which neither freedom nor justice can be permanently maintained.
James A. Garfield

30.
It is only the ignorant who despise education.
Publilius Syrus

31.
America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.
Evan Esar

32.
Soap and education are not as sudden as a massacre, but they are more deadly in the long run. Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Twain, Mark

33.
A college degree is not a sign that one is a finished product but an indication a person is prepared for life.
Reverend Edward A. Malloy

34.
Education has for its object the formation of character.
Herbert Spencer

35.
A well-informed mind is the best security against the contagion of folly and of vice. The vacant mind is ever on the watch for relief, and ready to plunge into error, to escape from the languor of idleness.
Ann Radcliffe

36.
Education, we see, is not merely gaining knowledge or skills helpful toward productive work, though certainly that is a part of it. Rather it is a replenishment and an expansion of the natural thirst of the mind and soul. Learning is a gradual process of growth, each step building upon the other. It is a process whereby the learner organizes and integrates not only facts but attitudes and values. The Lord has told us that we must open our minds and our hearts to learn. There is a Chinese proverb: Wisdom is as the moon rises, perceptible not in progress but in result. As our knowledge is converted to wisdom, the door to opportunity is unlocked.
Winder, Barbara W.

37.
If our education had included training to bear unpleasantness and to let the first shock pass until we could think more calmly, many an unbearable situation would become manageable, and many a nervous illness avoided. There is proverb expressing this. It says,trouble is a tunnel thorough which we pass and not a brick wall against which we must break our head.
Weeks, Claire

38.
An education obtained with money is worse than no education at all
Socrates

39.
Education is the power to think clearly, the power to act well in the worlds work, and the power to appreciate life.
Young, Brigham

40.
The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
Ruskin, John

41.
Good teaching is one-fourth preparation and three-fourths theater.
Gail Godwin

42.
The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.
Plutarch

43.
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.
Weil, Simone

44.
The great aim of education is not knowledge but action.
Herbert Spencer

45.
Public school is a place of detention for children placed in the care of teachers who are afraid of the principal, principals who are afraid of the school board, school boards who are afraid of the parents, parents who are afraid of the children, and children who are afraid of nobody.

46.
The great thing, then, in all education, is to make our nervous system our ally instead of our enemy.
William James

47.
A liberally educated person meets new ideas with curiosity and fascination. An illiberally educated person meets new ideas with fear.
Stockdale, James B.

48.
Education is like a double-edged sword. It may be turned to dangerous uses if it is not properly handled.
